February 2013 - Andriry Mountains, Madagascar - The Tandroka military operation was mainly conducted in the Andriry Mountains, one of the most isolated areas in southern Madagascar, where the main dahalo (zebu thieves) are supposed to live according to the authorities. The villages are very isolated and only accessible on foot. There are no roads, no telephone network, no electricity..Operation Tandroka was a large-scale military operation, launched by the authorities in December 2012 to try to eradicate the phenomenon of zebu thefts and trafficking. The soldiers were quickly accused by Amnesty International of having committed abuses and torture on villagers during their raids.
